Reviews

  • Aftering_at_my_way's avatar
    Sheila (Annie Chancel), the french singer and B. Devotion (three African-American singers)
    worked in team with the famous Chic (Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers )who produced this
    1979's disco masterpiece. It is a hauntingly beautiful song with the hallmark Chic guitar riffs
    in the background. The song provides over 6 minutes of great drumming and cool grooves in
    a spacelike atmosphere.

    "Spacer" tells of a woman's love for a gentlemanly "star-chaser" who acts as a protector of
    the galaxy. He vigorously opposes oppression and is seen as trustworthy. The song says that
    this man will be leaving on a mission tonight, thereby putting his life at risk. Despite what may
    happen to him, the love between the singer and this man "will last beyond time and space".

    More recently sampled by Alcazar's "Crying at the Discotheque" but also by Frank o' Moiraghi
    with his "Show me (spacer)". A remix of Sheila's "Spacer" came out in 1998.

    This single is a must in any Disco record collection!
